Re Mary's parents: The Anthony Morse, born in 1618 & died in 1678 at age 60 and listed on memorial #189739214, was not her father. He was instead the Anthony Morse #6909805, born in 1632 & died in 1676, leaving his widow, Mary Barnard, to remarry to Philip Eastman on August 22, 1678 in Newbury, MA. For sources see below:
Julie, a Findagraver, sent the following for Mary's father, Anthony Morse:
Death date source: “Massachusetts, Town and Vital records, 1620-1988, Newbury, Births, Marriages and Death”, p. 137. It was transcribed from the original records, on which it was on p. 344. The second to last entry for 1676 is: “Deborah the wife of Benjamin Goodridg dyed Novemb: 28th 1676” The last entry is: “Anthony Morse Junr” (no month, day nor year, but it is in the entries for 1676). Other places state that his will wasn’t probated until 1678, but there was no primary source given for that.
From “New England, the Great Migration, etc.” the entry for Anthony Morse Jr. read: “ii Anthony Morse, bp St. Mary, Marlborough, Wiltshire, 29 January 1631/2 (deposed on 27 March 1677* aged about forty-five years”
*Since it is March, it was the first month of the year then, which means 1676 today.
Marriage sources: m. (1) Newbury 8 May 1660 Elizabeth Knight (EQC 6:255) and m. (2) Newbury 11 November 1669 Mary Barnard (EQC 4:171)
EQC refers to “Records and Files of the Quarterly Courts of Essex County” (Salem Massachusetts). The numbers refer to Volume # and page #.
